    Tadawson, the war's been over for many a year. Mac is down to what 4% market share. If it weren't for the iPhone they would be out of business years ago. Good thing Microsoft bought some of them to prop them up. Windows 7 is super solid and kicks the crap out of MAC OS whatever. You have a Mac and just can't stand it. Nice try troll.

    Troll (Internet) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_(Internet)
    In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat ...

    Glad you enjoyed our witty banter. It appears you can't abide an opposing opinion with out resorting to childish excretory exclamatory. This is a technique usually used by someone who doesn't have a valid point. Perhaps you should consider anger management classes. I must admit, I thoroughly enjoyed your cute little nick names, WinblowZ and MickeyMouseKetosh.

    Not trying to feed any trolling, but you have your stats turned around. Marketshare has been strongly growing and is now at 15% in the United States. The iPhone was not their saving grace.

    Mac Market Share Around the World: USA 15%, Canada 14%, Australia 14%, and more

    And for what it's worth, nothing will be able to match the stability of a UNIX based system.

    /end rant.

    Back to DIVE computers.

    The data I have been looking at is for the OS only and shows 6% market share as of Sep. 2011. The iPhone and iPad was absolutely their saving grace. Unix has about 1% market share.

    I really can't speak intelligently about Unix as I have never even seen one. I will have to bow to you on that topic.

    As far as stability, my Win7 64bit box has been running 24/7 since it came out. I have never had a BSOD or a crash of any sort.

    I may not be a Mac fan; but I love Apple stock. I am up over 500%.

    I have one word for you iTunes!!!!

    Oh, most certainly...on non-OSX platforms. iTunes works well on Mac based platforms, though.

    iTunes works fine on mine. It's just a laughable piece of software. It says everything there's is to know about OSX.

    Now now. It works fluidly and is all you need for music management. You can't simply make a sweeping generalization about an entire OS based on one application.
